Motion Shots in Bright Light
• If it is very bright where you are shooting and you are trying to get motion blur– You will have to set your ISO as low as
possible– If that doesn’t work, your only alternative is to
use a neutral density filter

Backlighting
• When bright light is coming from behind your subject you may unintentionally get a silhouette
• To reduce the silhouette and get your subject correctly exposed you can:– 1. meter closely on your subject– 2. Use your flash to illuminate your subject (fill flash)
• To emphasize silhouette meter on light coming from behind your subject

Flare
• To avoid flare use a lens hood and shoot away from the sun
• To emphasize flare shoot toward your light source – To make it even more pronounced have an
object partially covering by your light source

Bright Objects and Dark Objects
• When photographing bright objects (sand, snow, white buildings) your meter may be fooled by the brightness– You may have to over or under expose to get
the right exposure
• The same is true of dark scenes– You may have to give more or less exposure
than you meter tells you

Choices in Exposure
• You can choose a slightly light or dark image to enhance the feeling of your image
• You still need to be within acceptable bounds– You don’t want blown out whites or
excessively blocked up blacks

High Key/ Lighter Exposure
Make sure your blacks don’t get washed out
